The NeverEnding Story

A troubled boy dives into a wondrous fantasy world through the pages of a mysterious book.

The Neverending Story is a fairytale of the very best kind, with luscious effects which include a flying dragon, a rock monster, a fairy princess, and a threat in whose vanquishing lies hope.

“Directed by Wolfgang Petersen, the film concerns a withdrawn schoolboy, ignored by his businessman father and bullied at school, who steals a book and finds himself in thrall to the point where he is called upon to enter its world and save the magic land of Fantasia.

“Adapted from the novel by Michael Ende, the film is a mix of German Romanticism (complete with Wagnerian sets and a score in part by Giorgio Moroder) and Syberberg by way of Disney, or perhaps vice versa. There are even moments of moralizing which give the twin heroes' quest something of the steely tone of a Pilgrim's Progress.” - Time Out
